From The Library In Hearst

Marvellous that all libraries have computers for public use.  Too bad this keyboard isnt in English.  If I want to include an apostrophe it will look like this --è.    Or a question mark will look like this -- É  Spell check doesnèt  !! work either - well it works but it shows every word I type as being misspelled.  They are not French words afterall. 

My good news is that Featherweight is finished.  Yahoo!  It seemed to take a long time.  One commenter said that she thought I was doing pretty well considering the fingering weight yarn.
 I thought  - hey yea  - thatès right.  But then I rembered that it might be fingering weight yarn but the knitting gauge is DK weight. There goes that theory!

Now I will attempt to give you photos. Strange computer, stange language, strange system - well strange to me that is. I might bomb out here.

A bit of help from the French speaking librabian  and here you are.  First you see Featherweight blocking Hearst style.  Soaked then pinned to a scrap piece of foam and drying out doors in the sun.  No room in the trailer afterall.

And now me in my habitual  new-sweater pose.  Faceless with  hands up - in happiness not arrest. 

And my attempt at the thinkers pose.

Featherweight is a lovely sweater.  Very light - just enough warmth and coverage for a summers day.  I used less than two sekins of Americo Cotton Flammè - hey this French keyboard comes in handy.  Quite a bit less I think but until I get home to my yarn scale, I wont know for sure. 

Details will follow at summers end when I am home and have time to put details on ravelry.
